English is a broad major that allows students to focus on a number of areas of study
such as literature, linguistics, and both creative writing and practical writing.
Attention is given to gender and culture issues in literature and language courses.
Students develop the ability to communicate and a sense of humanity that is increasingly
recognized as a valuable tool in the workplace. The literature curriculum develops
strong critical and textual skills, and allows students to discover great literary
works of the past and present, providing an excellent foundation for graduate study
in English and related fields.
